Welcome to 19 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,560 Speaker 1: America's Voice Live. I'm Terrence Bates filling in for Steve Gruber. 20 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 1: It is Monday, November eighteenth. Let's get right into today's 21 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: top stories and a surprising turn of events. President Joe 22 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: Biden has lifted a long stand ban on Ukraine using 23 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 1: American supplied weapons to strike targets inside of Russia. This 24 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: decision has many experts concerned about international relations with just 25 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,199 Speaker 1: two months to go before Donald Trump retakes the White House, 26 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: plus Steve Bannon's trial related to allegations that he conspired 27 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,119 Speaker 1: to duke donors out of money for building a border 28 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: wall as being pushed back until next year. It's good 29 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: news considering that he just got out of prison. We'll 30 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 1: have more on that story coming up and then later. 31 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: A new poll finds that seventy two percent of Americans 32 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,479 Speaker 1: think it should be illegal for doctors to perform gender 33 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 1: affirming care and surgeries on miners. The details on that 34 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: study and a live interview straight ahead. Let's start things 35 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: off with this. Though. There's lots of debate over President 36 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: Trump's push for a national emergency declaration to address border security. 37 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: While many fears such a move could lead to the 38 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: militarization of USX of the US excuse me, experts are 39 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: weighing in arguing that it may not lead to the 40 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: extreme outcome summer ping. What would this emergency declaration actually 41 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: look like? And is it necessary to step up national 42 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 1: security or is it a dangerous overreach? Joining me now 43 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 1: to offer his insight, his former ICE special agent Victor 44 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,679 Speaker 1: Avola Victor Good afternoon. 45 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:18,519 Speaker 2: Great to be with you, terns. 46 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 1: So let's talk about this emergency declaration from your professional 47 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: or in your professional opinion, what would something like that 48 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 1: look like. 49 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 2: Well, the first thing that this declaration would do is 50 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 2: actually a lot of funds, which a lot of people 51 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 2: are kind of missing. They're thinking military interaction, they're thinking 52 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 2: a lot of other things. But initially the national declaration 53 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 2: of this emergency would actually give the money needed to 54 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 2: conduct these operations across the country and start the deportation process. 55 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 2: So that's really the first thing that would happen. Does 56 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 2: it include military and possible use of military? Absolutely, And 57 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 2: this is nothing new. By the way people are reacting 58 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 2: that this is kind of extreme and it's never happened before. 59 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 2: When I could tell you that I worked a lot 60 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 2: with National Guard. We had them assigned to our units 61 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 2: under homeland security investigations and certain capacities to help out. 62 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 2: A lot of it had to do with intelligence gathering, 63 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 2: a lot of them had to do with actual processing, 64 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 2: and a lot of the administrative work that is going 65 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 2: to be needed again because the actual ICE agents, the 66 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 2: ro deportation officers and others are going to be out 67 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 2: in the field conducting these field operations. 68 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: And to be clear, if there were National Guard or 69 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: military mobilization, it would be on this side of the border, 70 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: which would be their jurisdiction. 71 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 2: Correct, that's absolutely right. At terrence. I know that the 72 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 2: people kind of jump to conclusions here and thinking it's 73 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 2: going to be like an invasion into Mexico, and that's 74 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 2: not the case. The case is that we want to 75 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 2: free up as many of our border agents, which by 76 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 2: the way, they haven't been able to do it under 77 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 2: this administration, So now they're actually going to go and 78 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 2: be on the line. As a matter of fact, some 79 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 2: border agents throughout the country, border patrol agents will be 80 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 2: assigned to these task forces that will be created, I 81 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 2: believe throughout the country that will have HSI agents, RO agents, 82 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 2: will have maybe US marshals and other law enforcement agencies. 83 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 2: Some task words that already established will be possibly supplemented 84 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 2: National Guard of course, to help them do a lot 85 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 2: of other stuff that agents can be free up to 86 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 2: continue the operations on the ground. And so yes, it's 87 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 2: a cumbersome task, it's massive. However, it's going to be 88 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 2: well organized, just like the Biden administration did it as 89 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 2: a well oiled machine to allow millions of illegals to 90 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 2: come in. We're going to do it very well, organized, orderly, 91 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 2: and humane, but it's going to be the other way around, 92 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 2: going back to their country of origin. 93 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: Victor, you pointed out that a big part of any 94 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: sort of national emergency declaration will be funding. And while 95 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: that's one part, you want to make sure that our 96 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: border agents are military, whomever is going to be engaged 97 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 1: in this process has all the resources they need, it 98 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 1: seems to me the other part of the coin would 99 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: be to make sure that there are rules in place 100 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 1: to allow them to do their job. And I asked 101 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: that question in the context of we hear from border 102 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 1: agents many times that they're hamstrung that they're not being 103 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: allowed to do their jobs under the current policies. 104 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 2: That's absolutely right, and the handcliffs are coming off on 105 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 2: January twentieth at twelve oh one pm. And let me 106 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 2: tell you, I've been talking to the border agents the 107 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 2: last week and a half and they can't wait to 108 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 2: go back to do exactly that the scope of their 109 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 2: duties that haven't been allowed to do it in the 110 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 2: last four years. They're ready, They're giddy about it. They 111 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 2: will want to they want to protect the homeland. They 112 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 2: want to see public safety and national security at the 113 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 2: forefront because that's what they were trained to do, and 114 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 2: it spills over from to border patrol, eyes and many 115 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 2: other agencies. I think the actual morale that has boosted 116 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 2: up is actually across the board to law enforcement in general, 117 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 2: even including our military. So this is a good ripple effect, 118 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 2: a positive ripple effect that we're going to see amongst 119 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 2: our law enforcement agencies. But the funding will be there. 120 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 2: By the way, We've been spending millions, multimillions of dollars already, 121 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 2: So I don't want people to think that all of 122 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 2: a sudden it's going to be this incredible cost. The 123 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 2: cost has already been there. The American taxpayer has already 124 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 2: incurred all this costs, and I think the American people 125 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 2: spoke that this is where they want their tax dollars 126 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 2: to be spent, is to actually help clean up and 127 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 2: make their community safer. 128 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: President Trumps said on day one there's going to be 129 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: this mass deportation, that that's his goal, is this mass deportation. 130 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,679 Speaker 1: How do you go about that? How do you figure 131 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: out who to target first? Because the reality is we're 132 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: talking about multi million people who are in this country illegally. 133 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: That doesn't seem like you can just round everyone up. 134 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 1: It seems like it's got to be a process. And 135 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 1: that's just from my perspective from the outside looking in. 136 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 2: No, you're right, it's a methodical process. It's not going 137 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 2: to happen right away. What you're going to see is 138 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 2: an incredible, big change on day one, like a flip 139 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 2: of a switch at the border that you will see, 140 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 2: and that enforcement is going to be very visible. The 141 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 2: other part about the finding of the people detecting them. 142 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 2: We're going to use all our resources, all our technology. 143 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 3: We're going to. 144 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 2: Detect these people. And there's different categories of illegal aliens, 145 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 2: many different categories. We're going to go after the worst 146 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 2: of the worst, these criminally legal aliens, possible link to terrorism, 147 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 2: trender Arawa and the Venezuelan gang, many others linked to 148 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 2: the cartels. There's a lot of different bad people in 149 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 2: this country that came with different intentions, not that of 150 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 2: making a better life for their and their family. They 151 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 2: came to disrupt and to commit crimes. We have to 152 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 2: remove them first, and they will have to look at 153 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 2: other categories. I mean, people need to start recognizing and 154 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 2: there's going to be accountability that hasn't been held in 155 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 2: a long time, and that accountability is founding going to 156 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 2: land on the shoulders of the undocumented person. Somehow nobody 157 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 2: wants to talk about that. They kind of give them 158 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 2: an excuse, but they need to know that what they've 159 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 2: done is wrong. And as a matter of fact, the 160 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 2: totality of the circumstances here is they would actually eve 161 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 2: end up saving lives, people from drowning at the river, 162 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 2: from cooking in the sun in the desert, from being 163 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 2: sex traffic, but being violated by the cartels and raped, 164 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 2: so many bad things that happen to them. That's not 165 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 2: going to happen anymore because we wanted to come We 166 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 2: want them to come back in a legal fashion. That's 167 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 2: what we're pushing for, a legal system that, by the way, 168 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 2: it's going to be a great opportunity to finally do 169 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 2: something about that system as well. 170 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: You know, there are a lot of people on Capitol 171 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: Hill in Washington and say, oh, our immigration system needs 172 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: to be revamped. Do you see it that way or 173 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: do you see it just being a necessity of following 174 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:46,559 Speaker 1: the laws we have in place now? 175 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 2: Both actually there's a combination. I do agree there's some 176 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 2: instances that need to be fixed. I mean, there are 177 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 2: a lot of good people that we want to come 178 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 2: into this country that are waiting ten, twelve, fourteen years 179 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 2: to get access, and they've done everything that the US 180 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 2: federal government has asked them to do. Obviously, we need 181 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 2: to look at that process and why it's taking that long. 182 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 2: These people have actually been vetted, and so the contrary 183 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 2: of what we've see in the opposite of very little 184 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 2: vetting or no vetting of millions of people. We need 185 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 2: to kind of flip the strip here and concentrate on 186 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 2: the legal people that want to do it the right way. 187 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 2: And it's going to take some time, but we have 188 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,839 Speaker 2: to start by removing these individuals that first of all, 189 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 2: the ones that just came in here in the last 190 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 2: four years, is multimillions of them, and the roads already, 191 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 2: by the way, Terran's about seven hundred thousand illegal aliens 192 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 2: walking around with deportation orders already. That means they saw 193 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,199 Speaker 2: an immigration judge and have been ordered deported. We got 194 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 2: to go target them as well and remove them. So 195 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 2: we have plenty of work to start off with here, 196 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 2: and this whole nonsense about going after grandmothers and all that. 197 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 2: That's not the case. Initially, We're going to have to 198 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 2: go and get these bad people and clean up these 199 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 2: I think these towns are fed up, and that's why 200 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 2: the American people voted the way they did, because they 201 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 2: want the safety of the communities to come back to 202 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 2: what it used to be. 203 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: Victor, let's focus on that seven hundred thousand number that 204 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:13,559 Speaker 1: you just quoted. What would you anticipate being the timeframe 205 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: of rounding those people up and deporting them, getting them 206 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: out of this country, particularly since they are already deportation 207 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: orders for these people. Do you foresee that being a 208 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 1: fairly quick process, say months? Is this a year's long process? 209 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: Is this a several administration long process? How do you 210 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:31,719 Speaker 1: foresee that? 211 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 2: I can't give an exact number, but it's definitely not 212 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 2: going to be a year. I would say, I would 213 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: say a few months. To give us time to do that, 214 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 2: because on January twentieth, it's all going to be set up. 215 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 2: The programs will be set up, the law enforcement operational 216 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,079 Speaker 2: plans will be set up. Already, We're not going to 217 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 2: start on that day. The process has already begun as 218 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 2: a matter of fact, and so we will target those news. 219 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 2: We know where these people are at. There's another argument, 220 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 2: I get a lot of it. We're not going to 221 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 2: be able to find them. Yes, we will where the 222 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,079 Speaker 2: police and we'll do our job and use every technology 223 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 2: and database available to detect you, find you, and detect you. 224 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 2: And plus we have a bunch of space right now. 225 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 2: One of the things that I would propose to President 226 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 2: Trump and the organization is all these facilities that were 227 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 2: built by the Biden administration, the soft sided facilities in Opasso, Texas, Donna, Texas, 228 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 2: Eagle Pass, Sapota County, a lot of them that I 229 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 2: actually visited myself. We keep them, We've already paid for them. 230 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 2: We keep them, but now we use them as processing centers, 231 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 2: detention facilities, if you will. But the other way around, 232 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 2: you're going to be detected. You're gonna be caught. You're 233 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,119 Speaker 2: going to be processed in norly fashioned and then removed 234 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 2: to your country of origin. And you're going to see 235 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 2: initially those quick ones, the ones that already have that 236 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 2: deportation order. It's going to go pretty quick. 237 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 1: All right, Victor. Before I let you go, this is 238 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: a question I ask many people with your expertise. The 239 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: problem has been exacerbated over the last four years, the 240 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: problem of illegal immigration in this country. We hear the 241 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: numbers of how millions of people have come into this 242 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 1: country illegally. It seems to me as a layman that 243 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: one can't reverse that trend, that the pendulum can't swing 244 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 1: back the other way immediately, that that process would be 245 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 1: a pretty extensive process, giving how bad the problem is. 246 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: Give me some perspective on that. Is this something that 247 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: can be turned around pretty immediately in your mind, or 248 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: because the damage has been done and it's been so significant, 249 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: is this really a long term kind of thing. 250 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 2: It's a long term kind of thing. The damage is 251 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 2: very extensive. And I put it to you this way. 252 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter what I say. It doesn't matter what 253 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 2: President Trump says or Tom Holman says. It's gonna matter 254 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,680 Speaker 2: when the illegal themselves what they say, and when that phone, 255 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 2: that final phone call that they make to their family 256 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 2: and friends, to their home country, the call right now 257 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 2: is I need it, and you know, bring yourself over. 258 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 2: You're gonna make it no matter what happens to you 259 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 2: throughout the journey. Well, that phone call needs to change, 260 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 2: and that message from them themselves personal to their family 261 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 2: and friends is going to say, don't come because as 262 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 2: a matter of fact, I'm calling you from a detention facility. 263 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 2: I might be calling you from a prison facility. Don't 264 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 2: waste your money, don't give it to the cartels. Stay 265 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 2: home and do better in your country, and don't waste 266 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 2: your time and effort and be a victim of a crime. 267 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 2: And when they start making that phone call, when they 268 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 2: start putting that on social media, which what they do 269 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 2: the opposite right now, you're going to see that pendulum 270 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 2: that you talk about shift and the burden is going 271 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 2: to be placed back on them. 272 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,599 Speaker 1: It sounds like what you're describing as the terrence. 273 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 2: Well we need, there is none right now. There's nothing 274 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 2: to determ. The magnets, by the way, are going to 275 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 2: go away. The magnets of the shelter, the hotel, is 276 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 2: the food, whatever it is that they're getting right now, 277 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 2: the NGOs, we got to target them. All those magnets 278 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 2: are going to be gone. And so when you remove 279 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 2: the magnets and when you start holding them accountable, all 280 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 2: of a sudden, that narrative and that deterrence is going 281 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 2: to change, and it's going to change for the better. 282 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 2: Everyone will believe it or not. I know sometimes it's hard, 283 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 2: but eventually, when this starts sorting out, it's going to 284 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 2: benefit everybody. Will benefit the country of Mexico. It'll benefit 285 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 2: abviously the US, but it will benefit economically. It's not 286 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 2: going to be a burden. We need to put the 287 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 2: burden back on these countries to take care of their citizens. 288 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 2: We for so long now have been taking the burden 289 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 2: and put it on the US, and we need to 290 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 2: shift it back on them. There's going to be a 291 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 2: lot of diplomacy here, starting with Mexico, Central America and 292 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 2: many others in the foreign policy aspect. Believe me, that's 293 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 2: going to be a simultaneous effort that's going to be 294 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 2: very very important as well. 295 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 1: Vic Davila, we appreciate your time, sir, Thank you so 296 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: much for your expertise, great conversation. I appreciate you. 297 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 2: Thanks for having me always. 298 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: Coming up after the break, Acting President Joe Biden has 299 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: shocked many of us by lifting the ban on weapons 300 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: to Ukraine and allowing the use of American supplied weapons 301 00:14:50,200 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: in the Russian territory. We'll talk about that next welcome 302 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: back everyone, and a significant shift in US policy. President 303 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden has lifted a long standing ban on Ukraine 304 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: using American supplied weapons to strike targets inside of Russia now. 305 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 1: This decision marks a major escalation in US support for 306 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: Ukraine's defense against Russian aggression, and, while welcomed by some 307 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: as a necessary step to bolster Ukraine's counteroffensive, many critics 308 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: argue that the move is way too late in order 309 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: to have a decisive impact on the war. The Ukrainians 310 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: targeted key Russian military and logistical assets, which underscores the 311 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: growing pressure on the Biden administration to do more as 312 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: the war their drags on. It's also a shift that 313 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: could further intensify the conflict, but also raises some concerns 314 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: about the potential for even greater escalation. Joining me now 315 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: to discuss this is the former Congressman Man from Texas, 316 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: retired Army Lieutenant Colonel Alan West. Lieutenant Colonel West always, 317 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 1: good to see you, my friend. How are you. 318 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 3: I'm doing great here. Thanks for having me on. 319 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 1: Always a pleasure. Let's talk about this because it is 320 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: interesting that a lame duck president and Joe Biden would 321 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 1: allow this sort of change in policy and allow the 322 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: Ukrainians to fire American missiles into Russia. What do you 323 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: make of that? 324 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 6: Well, it is very perplexing because what you started out 325 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 6: with saying, a lame duck president, why would you make 326 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 6: such a huge foreign policy and national security decision, Because 327 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 6: basically you are bringing America into a proxy war with 328 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 6: another country, with Russia, with enabling our weapons to be 329 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 6: fired into their homeland. Now, I could understand if you 330 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 6: would allow some of the staging bases that maybe just 331 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 6: right across the border, or logistical support bases right across 332 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 6: the border from Ukraine to be struck. But why would 333 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 6: you wait and do this now when you have always 334 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 6: been talking about major escalations. So you would think that 335 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 6: this would have been something that Joe Biden would not 336 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 6: have unilaterally done. He would be in concert and talking 337 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 6: with the income administration. We do have an incoming national 338 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 6: security advisor. He would have allowed him to be consulted 339 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 6: about this. But the biggest way if you want to 340 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 6: defeat China, Russia, North Korea is once again to kickstart 341 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 6: all the natural gas and once again ship our liquified 342 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 6: natural gas over to these European countries to undermine the 343 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 6: economy of Russia and prevent him from being able to 344 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 6: prosecute this combat operation. 345 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 1: How much of an escalation is this all? What could 346 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: this potentially blow up into And I'm not using that 347 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 1: word slightly, but this could explode into something much bigger 348 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: than the current conflict. It strikes me. 349 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 6: No, You're absolutely right, and I think that's one of 350 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,119 Speaker 6: the things we have to be concerned about it, especially 351 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 6: when this major type of decision. 352 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 3: Being made by an outgoing administration. 353 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 6: Without a doubt, Russia could now look at it and 354 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 6: say that we're going to use our weapons supply to 355 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 6: other entities that may be fighting against the unanization America 356 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 6: being at the transnational and ARC or criminal terrorist organizations. 357 00:17:58,359 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 3: China could do the exact same thing. 358 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 6: So we have to be very careful about being drawn 359 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 6: into a proxy battle when I don't think that we 360 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 6: want to be in that footing, especially with an income 361 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:11,679 Speaker 6: and administration that will have a completely different foreign policy pursuit. So, 362 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 6: if anything, I think that maybe what Joe Biden is 363 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 6: trying to do is force the hand of the incoming 364 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 6: Trump administration. But I don't think that you're going to 365 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 6: be able to do that President Trump will come in 366 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 6: with his own foreign policy determinations, and I think that 367 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 6: he will bring this conflict to an end. 368 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 1: Now, we also are getting reports that North Korea, of 369 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 1: course joining our Russia and potentially putting boots on the 370 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: ground as part of this war. There are also reports 371 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: this morning that South Korea is considering offering some sort 372 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 1: of support to Ukraine. All of this says to me 373 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: or it seems to indicate that this could be a 374 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: conflict that becomes broader than that region that it's being 375 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,880 Speaker 1: fought in, and it could potentially lead to some sort 376 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 1: of world escalation, which of course I think for most 377 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 1: reasonable people is a major concern. 378 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 6: Well, you aready seeing that global escalation because of what 379 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 6: the weakness of this administration that is outgoing. You did 380 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,679 Speaker 6: not see any incursions into a Ukraine or any foreign 381 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 6: incursions during the Trump administration. He handled things very well, 382 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 6: and it was the Ronald Reagan mattra piece through strength. 383 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 6: But what you did see doing the Obama Biden administration 384 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 6: Russia's incursion initially into Ukraine and then it continued on 385 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 6: into Biden Harris administration. 386 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:25,919 Speaker 3: So yes, we have to be concerned about this. 387 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 6: We already know that Iran, who was once bankrupt under 388 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 6: President Trump, has been shipping their drones over to Russia 389 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 6: to be used against Ukraine. So I think the President 390 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:39,160 Speaker 6: Trump would use first and foremost diplomatic pursuits. He would 391 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 6: use economic pursuits by way of our energy strength and 392 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,199 Speaker 6: once again make us energy independent and make us a 393 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 6: net exporter of those energy resources. And in Texas once 394 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 6: upon a time porter off of Texas on the under 395 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,400 Speaker 6: the Trump administration was the number one exporter of liquefied 396 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 6: natural gas. It was the Biden Harris administration to put 397 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 6: a kai bosh on that and enabled our enemies to 398 00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 6: be strong and strengthen them, as you see with Russia 399 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 6: and with Iran and even with China. 400 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 1: Lieutenant Colonel West, I, before I let you go, I'm 401 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: curious about your perspective on this angle of the story. 402 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: Do you see a lot of what we're seeing happening 403 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 1: between Ukraine and Russia right now is posturing to try 404 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: to put each side in better position for negotiations. Once 405 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 1: President Trump takes office and begins to try to broker 406 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: a deal between the two sides. 407 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,399 Speaker 6: Well there's no doubt that that will happen. And I 408 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 6: think that's the position that Russia definitely wants to be in. 409 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 3: But you have to look at it. 410 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 6: Russia invaded a sovereign nation and that they should not 411 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 6: have any claim inside any sovereign nation, and so I 412 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:40,679 Speaker 6: think that's where we have to start that off at. 413 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 6: But then again, when the Trump administration comes in, I 414 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 6: think the Trump administration will look at a position of 415 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 6: high ground which says we will destroy your energy exports, 416 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 6: we will destroy your economy, and make sure China understands that, 417 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 6: and make sure that Iran understands that we're going to 418 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 6: put those sanctions back on you. So it's about re 419 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,440 Speaker 6: establishing the strength of the United States of America, our 420 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 6: economic security, economic energy security, and independence and being able 421 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 6: to operate from a position of the moral high ground 422 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,160 Speaker 6: and also have an incredible military deterrent. 423 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 1: Lieutenant Colonel Allan West, we always appreciate your time, sir. 424 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: Thanks so much, God blessed, Thank you, Terres bless you 425 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: as well. Coming up after the break and update on 426 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: Steve Bannon's latest court appearance today, find out why he 427 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: was back in front of a judge just weeks after 428 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: being released from prison Pittsburgh, PA. Looking good there. We 429 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: appreciate you being here with us for America's Voice Live. 430 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 1: Steve Bannon's trial related to allegations that he conspired to 431 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,360 Speaker 1: dupe donors who gave money to build a border wall 432 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,440 Speaker 1: as being pushed back until next year. Bannon was set 433 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: to go on trial December fifth, but a judge just 434 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 1: delayed the proceedings until February twenty fifth. All of this 435 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: comes just weeks after War Room host was released from 436 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: prison following a four month sentence. The trial revolves around 437 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 1: the charity known as Build the Wall Incorporated. Bannon has 438 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 1: pleaded not guilty to charges including conspiracy and money laundering. 439 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: During today's hearing, the judge agreed to allow future drawers 440 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 1: to hear evidence that some of the charity's money was 441 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: allegedly used to pay on a more than six hundred 442 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: thousand dollars credit card debt that a second Bannon affiliated 443 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 1: nonprofit had racked up. President Biden is raising eyebrows this 444 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: morning with some critical decisions that he is making before 445 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,159 Speaker 1: leaving office. In this particular case, it's the decision to 446 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 1: allow Ukraine to use American made weapons to be used 447 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 1: in strikes on Russia. Not only is it a significant 448 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: reversal of US policy related to the Russia Ukraine war. 449 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: But it turns out Ukraine reportedly plans to conduct more 450 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 1: long range attacks in the coming days. Here's what Real 451 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: America's Voice correspondent Tara Doll believes is really behind all 452 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:54,640 Speaker 1: of this. 453 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 7: But I think what we're seeing right now is another 454 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 7: escalation because they know that when President Trump comes in, 455 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 7: he is going to end this war and they're going 456 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 7: to be on the negotiating table. So both Russia and 457 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 7: Ukraine are wanting to be able to advance whole territory 458 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 7: so that they are in a stronger position so that 459 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,479 Speaker 7: when Trump comes in that they will be able to 460 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 7: leverage their position. And so that's what you're seeing play 461 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 7: out right now. 462 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: President Trump has said he believes he can end the 463 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: war between Russia and Ukraine quickly upon taking office. Based 464 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 1: on Terror's assessment that you just heard, it appears both 465 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:31,640 Speaker 1: sides may be preparing for that eventuality. And just into 466 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: our newsroom this morning, discount airline Spirit Airlines files for bankruptcy. 467 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: The filing comes as the carrier struggles to recover from 468 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: pandemic travel losses and the failed attempt to sell to 469 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:46,639 Speaker 1: Jet Blue, Spirit is the biggest American budget airline. The 470 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: company says it has lost more than two and a 471 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 1: half billion dollars just since the beginning of twenty twenty. 472 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: The airline also faces a debt payment of more than 473 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 1: a billion dollars over the next year. Spirit says it 474 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: expects to operate as normal while it works through its 475 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: Chapter eleven bankruptcy process. The airline stock has crashed some 476 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 1: ninety seven percent since twenty eighteen. President Trump could announce 477 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 1: his pick for Treasury secretary as soon as this week. 478 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: He is reportedly adding to his list of potential nominees. 479 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,680 Speaker 1: Business Insider reports the list now includes Kevin Walsh, who 480 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 1: is a former economic advisor to President George W. Bush 481 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: and a former Federal Reserve Board governor. Sixty two year 482 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 1: old billionaire investor Mark Rowan is also being considered. He 483 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,879 Speaker 1: leads Apollo Global, which has nearly seven hundred billion dollars 484 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 1: in assets under its management. Rowan and Walsh are said 485 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: to be the new candidates for the job, rounding out 486 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: the Treasury secretary shortlister Howard Lutnick and Scott Bessant. Lutnik 487 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: is serving as President Trump's Transition co chair. He is 488 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 1: a longtime friend of the President and the CEO of 489 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 1: Wall Street financial services firm Cantor Fitzgerald. Bessant is one 490 00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,439 Speaker 1: of the original front runners for the position. He and 491 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 1: President t reportedly spend a good bit of time together 492 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 1: last week at mar A Lago. Whoever is a nominee 493 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 1: will immediately get to work helping the US avoid a 494 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: default when the national debt ceiling expires at the beginning 495 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 1: of next year. The nominee will also have to dive 496 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,880 Speaker 1: headfirst into extending the twenty seventeen Trump tax cuts, which 497 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,400 Speaker 1: are set to expire next year.

Coming up after the break, 523 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 1: a new poll is showing that Americans across the political 524 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:52,720 Speaker 1: spectrum strongly oppose stransgender surgery for minors. We'll have the 525 00:26:52,760 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 1: details on that polar ahead. Welcome back everyone, Terrence Bates 526 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: here with you. We appreciate you being here with this 527 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 1: for Americans Voice Live. According to a new poll, it 528 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:13,120 Speaker 1: appears that Republicans and Democrats alike are opposed to allowing 529 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 1: transgender surgeries on miners. The Nempolitan News Service poll finds 530 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: it seventy two percent of Americans think that it should 531 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: be illegal for doctors to perform gender affirming care surgeries 532 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: on miners. Of those seventy two percent of Americans who 533 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 1: don't support it, eighty six percent of Republicans fifty eight 534 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:34,879 Speaker 1: percent are Democrats, clear majorities on both sides. The poll 535 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: also says sixty eight percent of Americans don't believe that 536 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 1: transgender athletes should be competing in women's sports. As of late, 537 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: politicians on both left and the right have been speaking 538 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: out regarding transgender athletes competing in biological women's sports. Here 539 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 1: with me now to discuss this a little bit further 540 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 1: is the president of the American Principles Project, Terry Shilling. Terry, 541 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 1: good to see you, my friend. 542 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,399 Speaker 3: Thanks so much for hammi. Terrence. 543 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 1: You know, it seems to me that American Principles are 544 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: now pushing back against some of these gender affirming cares. 545 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 1: To take a page out of your book in the 546 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 1: title of your organization. 547 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 5: No, that's exactly right. The pushback is finally here. We 548 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 5: started off in the States, We've invested millions of dollars 549 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 5: into campaigns and elections. We're up to twenty five states 550 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 5: that are protecting children from these gruesome and permanent sterilizing 551 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 5: procedures known as gender affirming care. And we're also up 552 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 5: to twenty five states that are protecting girls' sports. The 553 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 5: thing is that's so wonderful about this is that. 554 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 3: It appeals to common sense. Right. 555 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 5: The average person doesn't need to you know, know very much. 556 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 5: They just need to know that we don't let kids 557 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 5: consent to sex, So how in the world can we 558 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 5: let them consent to a sex change. 559 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 3: It's that simple, you know. 560 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 1: Common sense is exactly where I was thinking. The reality is, 561 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 1: we don't allow kids to get tattoos and other body 562 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: changing things, you know, until they're eighteen, or until they 563 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: can really make a decision for themselves. Why would we 564 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 1: do it for kids younger than that as well? It 565 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 1: just again to me, it comes down to common sense. 566 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 5: No, that's right. I would rather get into my teenage 567 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 5: child's room and find alcohol, cigarettes, every type of vaporizer. 568 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 5: I'd rather find marijuana than to push them down a 569 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 5: road that's going to permanently sterilize them and mutilate their bodies. 570 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 5: This is absolutely destructive care and it's pure malpractice in 571 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 5: consumer fraud that's being pushed on us by a four 572 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 5: and a half billion dollar industry, and we need to 573 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 5: continue getting the word out. We need to continue passing laws. 574 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 5: President Trump, as i'm sure you're aware, has been exceptionally 575 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 5: strong on both protecting our children from this industry but 576 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 5: also protecting our girls' sports. 577 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 3: So we've got to be there. 578 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 5: We're going to app and myself, we're going to be 579 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 5: bulldogs for President Trump's pro family agenda and get this 580 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 5: over the finish line. He's made a lot of great 581 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 5: pledges and promises, and we're going to help them get 582 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 5: those accomplished. 583 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: Terry, let me ask you, do you see the policy 584 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: following the public sentiment. The numbers we just shared show 585 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 1: that people are strongly against these sorts of procedures, but 586 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 1: I'm not so sure we're seeing the widespread policy to 587 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: match that public sentiment. 588 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 5: Well, we're up to twenty five states that have taken 589 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 5: action and actually pass laws to ban these gender mutilation surgeries. 590 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 5: And we're also up to twenty five states that have 591 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 5: banned biological males from girls' sports. Now the next step 592 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 5: is is we have to get these protections nationwide. There's 593 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:32,479 Speaker 5: no reason why children in California or Illinois or New 594 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 5: York should be victims of this predatory transgender industry. We 595 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 5: have to protect all children because children are our future. 596 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 5: And it's very important that if you know, it goes 597 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,719 Speaker 5: back to a terrence. If you can't consent to sex, 598 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 5: you can't consent to a sex change. 599 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 1: Talk about some of the laws we're seeing in these 600 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 1: twenty five states that you just mentioned, and I realize 601 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 1: that there's probably a gamut in terms of how severe 602 00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: or how strict the laws in but give us some 603 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: cond text if you will. 604 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 5: Well some of these most of these laws are just 605 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 5: straight up bands around giving children any type of procedure 606 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 5: that would sterilize or mutilate them in order to achieve 607 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 5: a gender of affirmation care. But another twenty five states 608 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 5: have also passed legislation to uphold the actual intent of 609 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 5: Title nine, which is to give women their own opportunities 610 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 5: in sports. What's very interesting about the next iteration of 611 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 5: these laws to protect all Americans from these procedures is 612 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 5: they're looking at liability medical liability protections for these miners 613 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 5: and as well as adults. They are victims of consumer fraud, 614 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 5: and we believe that since they were being misled and 615 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 5: lied to in order to get a sex change procedure, 616 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,719 Speaker 5: which is not possible, that down the road, if they 617 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 5: believe that they've been rushed into it or lied to 618 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 5: and misled, that they should be able to sue these doctors, 619 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 5: these clinics, and these pharmaceutical companies for damages for consumer 620 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 5: and pushing this on them. So that's the next iteration 621 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 5: of this is legal malpractice liability reform to give these 622 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 5: people more protections under the law, make sure that if 623 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,239 Speaker 5: they were pushing into these sex change procedures that they 624 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:12,880 Speaker 5: can get paid. 625 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:15,959 Speaker 1: Terry, let me step back a step, and I'd love 626 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: to get your perspective on what gave birth to this movement, 627 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: because that's what I see it as. I see it 628 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 1: as a movement, and I'm not so sure where it 629 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: came from. It seems to me it kind of popped 630 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: up and now it's part of our daily consciousness. But 631 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: where did it come from? 632 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 5: Do you think it came right from the federal government? 633 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 5: There are some origins before that in academia. But this 634 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 5: didn't really catch legs until Barack Obama signed an executive 635 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 5: order declaring that gender identity was unlawful discrimination under civil 636 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 5: rights law. That was something very new, I believe he 637 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 5: did it in his second term in office, but was 638 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 5: essentially what that did was redirect lots of money, and 639 00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 5: it also redirected coverage through Obamacare for these procedures. So, 640 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 5: for example, since gender identity discrimination is unlawful, if an 641 00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 5: insurance plan covers a double massed tectomy for cancer victims, 642 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 5: they also must carry and cover double massed tectomies for 643 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 5: transgender patients who want to become mail or transition to 644 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 5: the opposite sex, as impossible as that is. So this 645 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 5: actually is rooted heavily in the federal government. It would 646 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 5: not exist without all of the funding and the regulatory 647 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 5: changes through the federal government that they've been pushing on 648 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 5: the states and local government. 649 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 1: Elections have consequences. I think he said that. No, yes, sir, yeah, 650 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: all right, We appreciate your time, our friend. Thank you 651 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 1: for the lesson on the federal government and how we 652 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 1: got to where we are right now. Thanks so much, 653 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 1: my friend. 654 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 3: Thanks sarres. 655 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 1: All right, we'll talk soon, Terry. The October fifteenth deadline 656 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 1: has passed, and so are you prepared for what's coming next? 657 00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 1: Do you owe back taxes? Are your tax with turn 658 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 1: still unfiled? Did you miss the deadline to file for 659 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: an extension? Well, now that October fifteenth is behind us, 660 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: the IRS may be ramping up enforcement.

Yellowstone National Park looks like a 681 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 1: really cool place to visit. It's on my short list 682 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 1: of places to go. While President Trump is looking to 683 00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 1: name a Treasury secretary, he spent part of his weekend 684 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 1: in the nation's financial capital.

Several of the fighters acknowledged mister Trump, 691 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: with UFC champ John Jones even handing them in the 692 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 1: championship belt. You may have been able to see that 693 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:06,320 Speaker 1: in the video we just showed you. Oh, the host 694 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 1: of CNN's The Chris Wallace Show is leaving the network. 695 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 1: He's the first to be cut from the once number 696 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: one cable news network. Less than a week after the election, 697 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 1: Wallace announced his sudden departure from the network, where he's 698 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:24,399 Speaker 1: worked since twenty twenty two. On Saturday, Wallace jokingly told 699 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 1: his viewers, I'm still here. 700 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 4: Yep, I'm still here. As some of you may have heard, 701 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:34,319 Speaker 4: I've decided to leave CNN to pursue a future. 702 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:34,760 Speaker 3: In new media. 703 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 4: For those of you who are concerned, and thank you 704 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 4: for your thoughtful notes, I decided to do this months ago, 705 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 4: and I'm excited to take on a new challenge. 706 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 1: My only regret is. 707 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:48,360 Speaker 4: Leaving my feisty colleagues here on the panel, and the 708 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 4: wonderful team that puts all this together, and of course 709 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 4: all of you. I'll have more to say on my 710 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,720 Speaker 4: final show next week. Now, let's get to the news 711 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,280 Speaker 4: and break down the big stories with some smart people. 712 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:05,720 Speaker 1: CNN's ratings for election coverage dropped fifty percent. Walla says 713 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 1: his only regret is quote leaving my feisty colleagues here 714 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,720 Speaker 1: on the panel, the wonderful team that puts all this together, 715 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 1: and of course all of you you just heard him 716 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: say that. Wallace claims that he had planned on leaving. 717 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 1: The Daily Mail reported that he had been asked to 718 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: take a pay cut. Walla says he and his wife 719 00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 1: made the decision about six months ago, though Red State 720 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 1: reports that Wallace signed a massive deal with CNN less 721 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 1: than three years ago. The former Fox News host was 722 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 1: an original news host in CNN's short lived attemph At 723 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,880 Speaker 1: a streaming service CNN Plus, as it was called, shuddered 724 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: less than a month after its debut. Wallace's contract was 725 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 1: scheduled for renewal at the end of this year. Last July, 726 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:48,200 Speaker 1: you may remember, CNN announced more than one hundred layoffs. 727 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:52,359 Speaker 1: A new study highlighted by The Daily Skeptic Counter as 728 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 1: a climate crisis narrative, showing Antarctic sea ice has expanded 729 00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 1: since satellite MONITORINGY began in nineteen seventy nine. The findings 730 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: attribute sea ice changes to natural climate variations rather than 731 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: human activity. The data reveals a gradual ice increase until 732 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, followed by fluctuations, including a decline from twenty 733 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: fourteen to twenty nineteen and resume growth thereafter. These fluctuations 734 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 1: reflect natural atmospheric and oceanic cycles. The European Union's Copernicus 735 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: Weather Service confirms no long term trend and Antarctic sea 736 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:31,360 Speaker 1: ice extent. The study also notes that extreme climate narratives 737 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:37,840 Speaker 1: often lack robust evidence. Mainstream media has falsely predicted catastrophic impacts, 738 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:42,840 Speaker 1: including antarctic collapse and choral extinction, despite evidence showing choral 739 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 1: and polar species thriving. The study calls for fact based 740 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 1: environmental strategies, and it rejects unfounded climate alarmism and unsustainable 741 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 1: net zero policies. New York City, Ecuadorians are eating guinea pigs. 742 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,800 Speaker 1: The New York Host reported the restaurant La Casa del Coi, 743 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,440 Speaker 1: translated as the House of Guinea Pig in a Corona 744 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 1: Queen's Grills and service in a Corona Queen's grill. Apparently 745 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 1: it serves the rodent kai hole. Wow, they're eating the dogs, 746 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 1: the people that came in, They're eating the catch, they're 747 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 1: eating they're eating the pitch. 748 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 3: Of the people that live there. 749 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:30,360 Speaker 2: And this is what's happening in our country. 750 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 3: And it's a shame. 751 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 1: A dinner of a two and a half pound rodent 752 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 1: measuring about sixteen inches from snout to tip of its 753 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 1: toes serves several people and it costs one hundred and 754 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 1: ten dollars each, and it's said to taste better than 755 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,080 Speaker 1: chicken and rabbit. The best part is apparently the heads, 756 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 1: so they say. The animals are bought in bulk and 757 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 1: flown in frozen from small farms in Ecuador. Kai, as 758 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,840 Speaker 1: it's called, has been a staple of South American nations 759 00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:02,879 Speaker 1: for thousands of years, and its prize for its low 760 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,680 Speaker 1: fat its high protein content. Kai are easy to raise, 761 00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:10,320 Speaker 1: their profitable and more sustainable than cows and other traditional 762 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 1: livestock due to their small size. The restaurants originally served 763 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,239 Speaker 1: rotisserie chicken, but started serving the rodents during the COVID 764 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 1: nineteen pandemic due to high demand from the Ecuadorian residents 765 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 1: in those communities. The post also says the squeamish can 766 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 1: still enjoy roasted chicken in that restaurant. Back in December 767 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 1: of twenty eighteen, President Trump signed in the law the 768 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 1: Dog and Cat Meat Trade Prohibition Act, which outlawed the 769 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 1: slaughtering trade of cats and dogs. HR sixty seven to 770 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,800 Speaker 1: twenty passed both the House and the Senate with penalties 771 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 1: of up to five thousand dollars for consumption, soliciting, and 772 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:50,279 Speaker 1: transporting of the pets.

And now it is kai 775 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,000 Speaker 1: interesting for those of us holding our breath for the 776 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:05,440 Speaker 1: past several months. We can exhale now because work can 777 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,280 Speaker 1: finally be done on the major issues the country is facing. 778 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:11,319 Speaker 1: One of the most significant is our national debt. The 779 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 1: fact is our nation is broke, and that debt is 780 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 1: a house of cards that can't quickly be rebuilt.

Deeply moved, Gene offered Arnie money as a 829 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 1: token of her gratitude, but he kindly refused. Instead, she 830 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 1: expressed her appreciation with homemade brownies and a heartfelt nickname, 831 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:16,560 Speaker 1: Arnie the Angel.
